Quit WoW

Share any problems you are having with quitting with us and we'll do our best to help.

We define and recognize WoW addiction as an inability to play WoW responsibly. Irresponsible gaming can prevent you from fulfilling your personal goals and can damage your relationships with your friends and family. Responsible gaming entails limiting your gaming time as required in order to allow for completion of your other duties and obligations. The duration of time in which one can game responsibly will vary individual to individual.

To be clear, we are not making the claim that everyone who plays WoW is engaging in unhealthy behavior. We are not "anti-WoW" or "anti-gaming"; in fact several of us may still play WoW. Our aim here is to help those who have been negatively affected by WoW addiction and to encourage responsible gaming.
